Right, so Facebook could potentially grow by 150%, maybe. But their valuation is predicated on them growing by a factor of 10x or more. That's the issue.

Now take the 9 million sites with the Like button and throw in some extra Javascript for a 'Social Adsense' product. Now they have implicit and explicit data to target off of. There's your 10x growth in revenue.
